Richard, I am assuming that by posting your image you want critiques from  
the peanut gallery.  So here goes one man's opinion.
 
1) Crop much tighter . . . perhaps just the part of the  stream that is going 
over the rocks.  There are several good photos in  this scene and isolating 
them might have resulted in more interesting  images.  Look for the simple 
rather than the all inclusive.  What  patterns might you have captured?  Is 
there 
an emotion trapped in that  scene?  Is there part of you in trapped in that 
scene?
 
2) Try using a slower shutter speed to really blur the water and show its  
movement, rather than kind of showing it.  I'm thinking perhaps a 1/2, 1/4  or 
1/8.  
 
3) Shoot either earlier or later in the day, when the light is a bit less  
harsh.  Get there right before day break or right before or slightly after  
sundown and capture the array of color produced at that time of the day.   It 
will 
be reflected in the water and will wash across the rest of your  scene.
 
4) In this shot, I might have gotten much lower to the ground, rather than  
either shooting from a fairly fully extended tripod or handheld standing up  at 
eye level.
 
Thank you for sharing your images and allowing me to share my  opinions.
